Is Nigerian BBQ underrated & undefeated?

I've noticed that people going to these spots lately. Especially in Upper NYC, lot of stands and restaurants pertaining to Nigerian BBQ are getting a lot more traction

Will it become bigger than before?
And if so, what are your favorite Nigerian BBQ meals and dishes?

havent had any yet but if this true the price of them beef cuts finna go up like oxtail

We'll see. It's weird I don't feel Jamaican food is as desired as it used to be

But that's probably me

I’m willing to try if I run into a spot, I’m not in New York tho I’m in Texas, might be harder to get a spot to pop down here

jamaican food has already been commodified atp from frozen patties to various chain restaurants. none of their other staple dishes have taken off into the zeitgeist either.

whereas suya (and west african / naija cuisine at large - jollof, egusi, fufu, etc) have been growing in popularity for awhile now. earlier this month;

Tell them mofos stop selling 4 baby oxtails for $100.

Alright so it's not me

That's good to know

Suya can be really good but I dunno if the toughness is gonna be for everyone, they cook meat ALL the way through over there

There is Suya Hut in Meadows Place and Street Suya in Dallas

only had it once and it was really fire

would like to try it again

had to find the old photos...shit was good asf man

Oh my god so f***ing delicious

I’ve never tried African food before but I’ve always been kinda curious

What’s the flavors like for the different cuisines?

haven't tried much, just relaying what ive noticed.

jollof^ is rice with a mellow tomato profile, people itt expressed their thoughts on suya - and then egusi and fufu is a soup / soft starch combo that seems to have the taste of earthy stewed vegetables. u can watch ppl try whatever on youtube n get the gist

i'd start with nigerian^ / ghanian / ethiopian^ food then branch out

i like those places where you get too cook it yourself

tried some suya last week. had me like

That's the cool thing about it. Similarly, the Japanese Hibachi places do that too.

So Naija restaurants taking a page out of that book is effective for their success imo
